Court documents released Tuesday afternoon indicate 21-year-old Skyway shooting victim Lemaun Lancaster named his alleged shooter Aug. 12 before dying of his wounds less than two hours later.

A pair of brothers from Renton turned themselves in Monday to the King County Sheriff's Office for their alleged connection to the shooting in front of the Grocery Outlet and Ezell's in the 11600 block of 68th Avenue South.

Deputies responded to a 911 call about 7:42 p.m. that night and found Lancaster lying on the ground in the Grocery Outlet parking lot with multiple gunshot wounds to his torso, probable cause documents say.

Lancaster reportedly named the 23-year-old man who turned himself in as his shooter. He died at Harborview Medical Center less than two hours after the shooting.

Reports also say the 23-year-old man got into his 27-year-old brother's Chevrolet Impala to leave the scene.

The probable cause statement says the 27-year-old brother stood next to his younger brother as the 23-year-old pulled a gun from his waistband and fired several rounds at Lancaster at close range. Video footage shows the pair leaving the scene in the Impala registered to the 27-year-old man.

Reports indicate the younger brother is known as a low-level gang member and has been convicted of lying to police.

The 23-year-old man is being held on $2 million for investigation of second-degree murder. The 27-year-old remains jailed on $500,000 bail for investigation of rendering criminal assistance.
